In one scene in this work, a minor character has a plan to solve the nation
In one scene in this work, a minor character has a plan to solve the national debt, while another scene features a character who wears a leek in his hat. That latter tries to arrest the protagonist for debt, leading to his marriage to a rich old maid with one eye. The protagonist tears off his wig and shakes his fist at God in a scene in a gaming-house, while a later scene sees fashionable ladies look on as he lies naked and shackled, comforted by his former fiancée Sarah Young. That final scene is set in Bedlam. Depicting an orgy as one episode in the decline of the libertine Tom, this is, for 10 points, what series of paintings by William Hogarth?
